NOT SO says our resident computer geek. That'd be Mitchell, he's the kid in our house wearing the "I Void Warranties" t-shirt. Mitchell claims it's our crappy router that's causing all the problems and has been begging us for almost a year to buy a pricy newfangled one.
Whatever it is, the one thing we're absolutely positively sure of, is the fact that when the internet does go down at the Skillman house, we act like the Apocalypse was here. No one here, myself including, seems to be able to breath without the internet.
So when it does go down, which is a daily and most wretched occurrence, we call in our personal Geek Squad...Mitchell. The kid can fix anything. Make anything too. His first computer was made from thrown away computer parts that he duct taped inside a cardboard box. The thing ran faster and smoother than my macbook. Boy Wonder.
And of course just a few minutes ago...FLATLINE. No internet. So when I asked him to fix the internet issues just a moment ago, he did exactly that. Soon, he hollered upstairs
"It's fixed, only you have to change the router your using, not our "Skillman"one!"
So, I pop back online and this is what I see:
Well, if the "Skillman" one isn't working I guess that leaves me only one other option. Wonder who in the world could have scrounged up a used router from a stash of discarded computer parts, duct taped it back together, hooked it up and named it "We Need A New Router". Hmmmm.
Secret message received! I guess that's what you get when you ask for free help!
